Example 6 of the specification.
The rejections are:
Claims 17 and 19-21 stand rejected under the judicially created doctrine of
obviousness-type double patenting as being unpatentable over claim 13 of Mitchell.
Claims 17 and 19-21 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as being unpatentable
over Samuni in view of Nilsson I or Nilsson II, and Bose and “the admitted prior art set
forth in the instant specification, especially example 6.”
DISCUSSION
Obviousness-Type Double Patenting
Claims 17 and 19-21 stand rejected under the judicially created doctrine of
obviousness-type double patenting as being unpatentable over claim 13 of Mitchell.
